    Default Hopefully geting my crx tuned in a week or two.

    I'm going over my car before I trailer it 1.5+/- hours to a tuner. I want to go over the car and make sure I don't waste the trip.
    What would be the best plugs to run? I'm thinking NGK bk7re but don't now.
    Any advice would be great. Thanks

    My setup

    Z6 stock bottom and P&P head.
    65mm TB with port patched intake manifold
    stock ignition
    DSM 450cc blue tops
    GM 3bar map (still have the stock map hooked up but the 3bar is wired up but not pluged in)
    td04 14B with stock 7psi wastegate
    HF crx manifold with td04 adapter
    front mount intercooler
    p28 ecu chipped with chrome pro

    any advice would be great. thanks

    The 7's will be fine for that much boost.1st thing is make sure ALL fluid leaks are fixed cause no tuners wants you dripping shit all over his/her dyno.2nd BOOST LEAKS.Fix all of them before you go.3rd do a comp test just incase.That should be it.

    No leaks right now boost or fluids. Now I just got to find someplace that that has the NGK in stock.

    So that way you can go ahead and tune up to your highest goal psi. If not you'll have to get retuned if you ever do turn the boost up.

    psi doesnt mean much, why not set a hp level to shoot for?

    Its a stock motor other than the 65mm TB and maybe a port and polish. I'm going to build a motor to make power later on and I don't expect this motor to last vary long anyway.

    If in any way possible, ditch the HF manifold.

    I started with a ramhorn style but it put the turbo out to far. This was a budget build so I already had the manifold. I plan on using a good one on my next motor.

    We carry Bkr7e's in stock, also, if you get them make sure they are gapped properly, check your timing out,check your fluid level, make sure there are no cel's etc... It will make for a more efficient and quick session..
